AhlulBayt News Agency: The number of martyrs of the deadly terrorist attack in Izeh city in Iran's southwestern province of Khuzestan on Wednesday has increased to seven people, with eight others injured.

Iran's security forces have arrested three people involved in Wednesday's deadly terrorist attack.

At least seven people were killed after terrorists opened fire at people and security forces at a crowded market in Izeh around sunset on Wednesday.

Officials have identified a nine-year-old child, a 45-year-old woman, and three youths among the martyrs. At least eight other people were also wounded.

The attack came amid ongoing foreign-backed riots that have hit various Iranian provinces after a 22-year-old Kurdish woman named Mahsa Amini died in hospital despite intensive medical care and resuscitation efforts.
